    • Trivia
      The character of Greg Lestrade is a combination of Inspectors Gregson and Lestrade. In the books, the latter character's first name is said to begin with the letter G, but is never revealed. This is why Sherlock is always forgetting Lestrade's first name.
    • Quotes

      Mycroft Holmes: All lives end; all hearts are broken. Caring is not an advantage, Sherlock.

    • Crazy credits
      In the American (PBS Masterpiece Mystery) broadcasts of this series, certain letters in the closing titles are highlighted red. These letters spell out a word that somehow relates to the episode. These highlighted letters don't occur in the closing credits of the original airings of the series (on BBC) though.

    Masterpiece
    I would rate the Sherlock series as a critically acclaimed and must-watch crime-drama television series. The show, created by Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss, is based on the characters from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories and follows the detective and his friend Dr. John Watson as they solve a series of complex and intriguing crimes in modern-day London.

    The series features outstanding performances, particularly from Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes and Martin Freeman as Dr. Watson, who deliver powerful and nuanced performances that keep the audience engaged. The writing is also exceptional, with well-crafted and complex storylines that build tension and keep the audience guessing. The series also features a strong sense of atmosphere and setting, adding to the show's unique tone and feel.

    The show also explores themes of friendship, trust, and the relationship between science and intuition.

    Overall, I highly recommend the Sherlock series for fans of crime dramas, and those looking for a series with complex and well-crafted storylines, superb acting, and a strong sense of atmosphere and setting. The show's exploration of themes of friendship, trust and the relationship between science and intuition adds a layer of depth to the story. It's a great series that keeps the audience guessing and on the edge of their seats.
